Summary

When a lead applicant gets money for a specific area under this program, they must show other funds or help from non-program sources equal to at least 25% of the money given to recipients in that area. Renewal money for projects funded under parts C, D, and F as they were before the effective date under section 1503 of the Homeless Emergency Assistance and Rapid Transition to Housing Act of 2009 can count. Grants for leasing do not have to match. Services given to project residents by a different organization count only if there is a written memorandum of understanding (MOU) saying the services will be provided. The required contributions can be cash for any eligible program activity, or, with an MOU, in-kind services for those eligible activities.
